Chapter 876
Fans soon discovered something even more outrageous than Sterling playing as a center forward.
Liverpool actually let Rodri keep pressing on Fernandinho. Manchester City didn't understand how Liverpool was going to pressure them at first.
But soon, Manchester City players discovered that they did not need to understand Liverpool's pressing method, because Liverpool themselves probably did not know what their own pressing method was.
All Liverpool players pressed the entire field one after another in an unreasonable manner!
So after the game started, Sterling, Mahrez and others originally wanted to actively implement pressure, but as the game progressed, the two felt that they were being actively oppressed by Liverpool's defensive players.
As an attacker who should have actively pressured the opponent's defensive players, Mahrez now became the passive player being pressured by the defensive players. This feeling made Mahrez very uncomfortable!
But soon, Manchester City fans saw something even more outrageous than Rodri's oppression of Fernandinho, that is, Lin Chen was actually oppressing Ederson!
"So Liverpool are going to start playing like crazy to win the Premier League? I don't even know what they're going to do."
"I tolerated you letting Rodri pressure Fernandinho, I tolerated you letting Guvardiol pressure Mahrez, but now you letting Lin Chen pressure Ederson, aren't you going too far?"
Klopp thought about what Manchester City was going to do from the beginning. Manchester City was likely to fight for a draw and control the game, and consume the rhythm and time from the beginning of the game.
In fact, Klopp predicted Guardiola's tactics and made effective pre-match targeted tactics.
Liverpool will use this comprehensive, all-round, and extremely deep pressure method to force Manchester City to move the ball forward from the first minute of the game, otherwise Manchester City will be intercepted in their own midfield and backcourt!
Ederson has always been a very important player in Guardiola's ball control system, because the goalkeeper is normally the player farthest from the opposing players on the entire field. Therefore, when Ederson controls the ball in front of the goal, Liverpool players need to run more distance if they want to grab him.
However, Lin Chen didn't need to run at all, because Lin Chen was always standing next to Ederson!
Not only could Ederson not touch the ball, he also had to look at Lin Chen standing beside him, smiling at him like an auntie!
Edson was very panicked. The more Lin Chen laughed, the more panicked Edson became, because he had no idea what Lin Chen was going to do!
In addition, with Lin Chen's ability and style on the court, if he smiles at you, it means that he must have thought about how to attack you later!
As the game continued, Liverpool used such a terrifying and suffocating pressure method to disrupt all of Manchester City's ball possession arrangements.
Lillo suddenly found that his tactics of maintaining a draw and winning had become a complete joke in the face of Klopp's pressure tactics.
The 27th minute of the game!
Lin Chen rushed towards Ederson and kept rushing into Manchester City's penalty area.
Manchester City's defenders certainly didn't dare to pass the ball to Ederson and could only move forward to look for passing opportunities, but all they could see were Liverpool players.
Soboslai and McAllister pressed hard, and Salah cleverly blocked in front of Stones, because Stones has always been a very important passing point in Manchester City's backcourt!
Since Stones can't receive the ball, Ruben Dias and Ake will have to receive the ball more often, but Soboslai and McAllister will also press in Manchester City's penalty area, which makes it impossible for Manchester City players to attack through short passes in the backcourt!
